YEREVAN, MAY 30, NOYAN TAPAN. As Nor Zhamanakner (New Times) Party
Chairman Aram Karapetian estimated, all political forces with the
exception of the Republican Party of Armenia, are discontent with the
results of May 12 elections. Declaring this at the May 30 meeting with
journalists, A. Karapetian added that it is a different matter who of
those discontent litigate the elections results at the Constitutional
Court. According to the information of NZP Chairman, the Constitutional
Court will examine jointly the applications submitted separately by
NZP, Hanrapetutiun, Orinats Yerkir parties and Impeachment bloc. As
A. Karapetian affirmed, in case of fair examination of the case the
elections results will be invalidated.
Ruben Torosian, Chairman of Supreme Council Deputy Club NGO, taking
part in the conference said that the NGO has provided all materials
on violations during the elections to NZP. 9 out of 12 points of
the application made up on their basis, as R. Torosian said, regards
violations committed in the pree lection period. Spending more money
than it is envisaged by the law by some parties during the election
campaign is one of these violations (it was mentioned that only
one of the concerts organized by RPA in Republic Square cost 1 mln
USD). R. Torosian stated that seven parties should have not permitted
to take part in the elections only due to the money spent by them on
TV broadcasts.
A. Karapetian added that NZP demands opening packages of documents
of 687 polling stations for studying contradictions in data of
commissions' protocols.
He also promised to publicly show a sample of forged passport on the
threshold of presidential elections. To recap, as the Impeachment
representative affirmed, during the elections the authorities had
organized a mass voting with 400 thousand forged passports.
